Can NASA run this game at 60+ fps

[soyjak gaming]

Just wondering around. I'm from country.

[Sams]

If I can, NASA can too, comrade.

[Fiat Multipla]

Nasa plays with 24 fps ...

[ItzJerry]

Dont think arma would utilize nasa computers very well

[MaugriM]

I have over 60 fps too. So yeah i think they would have more than 60.

Probably not. Their workstations are going to be bog-standard HP Enterprise trash because HP won the ACES contract to handle their normal IT: https://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2010/dec/HQ_C10-080_ACES.html

Their laptops are all IBM Thinkpads, which again are not gaming-centric at all.

The only thing NASA has are things like the Pleiades Supercomputer, which doesn't even have any GPUs in it. It's just a ton of CPU cores, gobs of memory and a huge clustered data storage and runs on Linux.

In all likelihood, nearly everyone playing A3 already has a better PC than the average NASA PC when it comes to gaming because most of them probably don't even have discreet GPUs and the ones they do have are Quadro/FirePro professional-class GPUs that are good at compute and suck at real-time rendering.

NASA are still installing it.

NASA is still using technology from last century, so they probably could not run Arma III even at 30 FPS. For example, the James Webb Space Telescope project began in 1996 and they still haven't launched yet. NASA is yet another fine example of government stupidity, and why it should be abolished.

Government stupidity still doesn't hold a candle to the dumba$$ AI that we have to deal with ... sure made the tank expansion missions throwaways

[Tracker]

I get over 60FPS

I recall the National Reconnaissance Office has technology 20-30 years ahead of NASA. I wonder if they can fix the AI...

Let me guess... the moon landing was a hoax, right?

The Moon Landing is filmed before a live studio audience *cues catchy 90s intro*
